Insulting 'Newt' Letter

Typical Of Liberal Media

April 30, 1994

I was appalled at the printing of a letter to the editor attacking the name of Newt Gingrich. The letter writer referred to a definition of Newt as a salamander. This childish endeavor to belittle a respected, politically concerned, elected representative of the people and his parents smacks of the adolescent behavior exemplified by the liberal establishment and the socialistic uttering of the Sun-Sentinel.

Such a letter directed to anyone other than a white, male, conservative, social contributor to the world would be considered politically incorrect. The writer is less at fault than the liberal sympathizers controlling what is publicly printed by the Sun-Sentinel. By the way, the Sun-Sentinel owes Gingrich an apology: A newt salamander is spelled with a small first letter.
